A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs

This is the double stroller for you in case you're looking for a lightweight one-hand stroller that is easy to push. It's also simple to carry up and down the stairs.

It has two fixed seats and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including the triangular design!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies and windows that peek out.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a double stroller that is side-by-side and https://m1bar.com/user/ErnestineMcclosk can accommodate two children of at up to 50lbs each. The seats are more spacious than similar strollers that are lightweight and the canopies feature large SPF 50 sunshades that have peekaboo windows. Other key features include one-parent cup holders and a large, self-standing bin that can hold up to 25 pounds; swing-away bar for kids to get in and out of their seats; and the front wheels that swivel lock to allow for single double stroller better maneuverability on rough terrain. This is a great choice for suburban and urban families. It is also newborn ready with the double kit which includes the newborn's wedgie to ensure the perfect lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of double pram and pushchair buggies will determine the ease of pushing. A lighter buggy is simpler to lift and transport, but may not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Most double buggies come with an upper limit on the weight of each seat, and some have overall frame weight limits which is why it's essential to check the details of each model prior to making a buy. Some also fold with seats removed to make them smaller and lighter this can be beneficial in cases where storage space is an all-time low.

Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models, as they only require a single hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, making them an ideal choice for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of most lightweight on the market. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies begin as one pushchair, but they come with adapters to add an additional seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them the ideal choice for expanding families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family with a third child. These doubles are heavier than trifolds, however, since the weight is evenly distributed, they are much easier to maneuver.

Folding

The best double buggies for small children can fold up in just a few minutes. Our Lab experts love this feature as it helps them squeeze the buggies into the back of their cars and save storage space when not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers were able to fold this tri-fold with just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a small double buggies. Its light weight is a plus but so are the features it offers: large pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 protection as well as a windows that peek out at you as well as swing-away bars to assist children get into and out of their seats; and reclined chairs and leg rests for young children.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important factors to think about when selecting the right size double buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how it is simple to move around with both children in the. Certain pushchairs are better than others such as the iCandy Orange's "cinema seat" (where the back is elevated).

The narrow tandem buggies are excellent at this as can side-byside designs. Buggies with this type of design can be a bit larger and can be difficult to maneuver through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this as it's a relatively narrow pushchair that still allows two seats to be added as well as - importantly - a 'piggyback' board that can accommodate an additional child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models such as the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kit' that turns it into an inline buggie. This has a couple of different seating configurations for kids with different ages. It even allows the front seat to be turned to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also has a great storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great option for families that are growing.

Comfort

With narrow tandem strollers or flexible side-by-side buggies parents can watch both children at the grocery store, park or any other place. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children up to 50 lbs each. They also come with a pop-out canopy that can be extended far enough to offer real shade. They also come with cup holders that can be reversible and placed on the seatback. They also have an individual cup holder for parents, plus a large underseat basket.

If you're starting out with a growing family, you can add the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double, ideal for toddlers and infants alike. The innovative 3-wheel design offers superior manoeuvrability and easy kerb pop, while the sling seat is a fab newborn-ready choice for ultimate face-to-face bonding. You can easily swap the seat for an infant car adapter when your children grow older. With a deluxe rain cover and travel bag you're set for your next adventure!
